Seems that the configure script can't find some Makefile.in files and so can't build a correct final Makefile Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" USE="hal pcmcia" emerge -v kmail 2. 3. Actual Results: checking for res_init... no checking for res_init in -lresolv... no checking for timezone variable... yes checking for tm_gmtoff in struct tm... yes checking if libksieve should be compiled... yes checking if kmail should be compiled... no configure: creating ./config.status fast creating Makefile can't open ./Makefile.in: No such file or directory fast creating libksieve/Makefile fast creating libksieve/impl/Makefile can't open ./libksieve/impl/Makefile.in: No such file or directory fast creating libksieve/ksieve/Makefile fast creating libksieve/parser/Makefile fast creating libksieve/shared/Makefile fast creating libksieve/tests/Makefile config.pl: fast created 7 file(s). config.status: creating config.h config.status: executing depfiles commands Good - your configure finished.

Could you check that you don't have kde eclasses or ebuilds in your overlays?
Yes I have experimental kde-metaebuilds from Berlios svn, and removing them from overlay solved the problem. Thanks.
